Pic of New House that just got approved
Here is a pic of my newest lot coming out... 55 Redwood Pkwy.. i am getting better at this. There is just so much more you can do with Sims 3 then Sims 2 but I am still going to make lots for Sims2 .. right now I have been trapped in Sims3 world lol... figuring out how the game works and enthralled with it all.
I have a bunch of Sims 2 recolors I need to submit so will get to that before I leave for Cuba on Dec 6 th.. A tonne of One Direction stuff and Twilight stuff.. and even more Breaking Bad stuff and Sons of Anarchy , Dexter and ah heck the new LOTR HOBBIT movie is coming out ( which I fully plan on going to see!!) so maybe some stuff for that movie.. ok now I am stretching myself pretty thin LOL
So here it is..new lot! Happy Thanksgiving to all the American Simmers out there!
2 New Sims 3 Lots Pending Approval.. let me know what you think!
Hey Simmers!
Been juggling creating recolors for Sims 2 and also learning the ropes with playing and building lots for Sims 3.
I have two new lots I have made for Sims 3.. they are pending approval. I am getting more skilled in my practicing LOL. Just takes time.
As well I just downloaded the World RIVERVIEW from the Sims 3 EA Store.. havent launched it yet to check it out.. but should be new and fun!
Let me know what you all think.. of my lots that is!
YAY! My first 2 Sims 3 Lots were Approved!
Finally! Yay! I have built two Sims 3 Lots and they got approved! Whoopee!
My Sims 3 lots are not as fancy and complicated as other skilled Lot creators for Sims 3 but please everyone cut me some slack. I am new at Sims 3. Years back my Sims 2 lots werent as good as they are now.. so in time.. with practice i will indeed get better creating lots in Sims 3. And eventually i will learn to re color for Sims 3 also. Anything is possible... if you keep trying!
So that Approval totally made my day.. in the midst of a stressful overwhelming crapola week! Woo hoo!
I have changed my mind about Sims 3.!! LOVE IT!
So yesterday I had a lazy day.. the night before Hubby and I had friends over for drinks.. needless to say I had Way too many and so yeserday I was paying the piper! LOL. The only thing I could focus thru the headache was gaming.. so I decided to play Sims3. Played it from early afternoon til 1 am LOL! I figured I should play the game so that I can Create for the game. I now see the dire need for custom content for that base game.. and I have no idea what has been done so I will have to go thru TSR and find out so I dont mistakenly copy something some one has already done. In playing the game for countless hours I found out how to build and zoom in and out. Great game. There are things about Sims 2 I like but also lots of new things about Sims3 too! Discovered the hard way.. you really need to start a single Sim off as a Young Adult or they will get old before they achieve lifetime goals! LOL
NEW! Twilight - and more One Direction- stuff coming soon!
With the release of One Directions new album " Take Me home" AND the latest Twilight movie " Breaking Dawn Part 2 " both coming out to the world this week.. the heat is on to have some stuff made for fans of both. I have already made a Poster Set and wal mural of 1 D that is coming out next week and am currently making more posters and wallpapers and bedding of one direction stuff. As well I am also in process of making Twilight posters and wallpapers and beddings for Twilight.
I do have some older creations for Twilight from 2009 - take a looksy if you have never seen them..
1. http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/details/category/sims2-sets-rooms-kidsbedrooms/title/mfg-twilight-movie-set/id/819121/
Can't believe I have 2,250,052 downloads!
Looked just now on my profile page and I see my Downloads numbers have gone up! Wow! 2.25 MILLION downloads! Wow wow wow!
A huge HUG and Thank you's and Some HIVE FIVES and WOOOOTS to all the amazing Simmers out there that find my creations worthy of downloading and playing in your game! I am so humbled by this! *** Mwah! kiss kiss! ***
I have LOTS more on the horizon. Currently I have 1617 creations published and even now have 15 more approved and coming up on their publishing date. I realize I have pages upon pages on creations to look through.. but please do take the time to look through them if you can.
Back in 2009 I did recolors of Maxi's Punching bag and even the microwave and other different things. I have a tonne of Shower Curtain recolors for all the base Game showers and shower / tub combos. ( Psst.. I plan on making some new sets of shower curtains soon! One idea at a time LOL)
Until this last month when I came out of retirement after 3 yrs hiatus I did recolors of Only base Game items or Custom Content.. so ppl with Base Game can find lots for their game.
I do plan on doing some more Nightlife Object recolors as well as my fave... Custom Content. :)
Also to add.. I intend on getting Sims2 University very soon for Building and recoloring Uni objects.
I have Sims3 base game.. and in my blog post from a few days ago.. I created my first house ( got rejected lol.. as i have to fix a few submission requirements) In the New Year I plan on trying to figure out Sims 3 more .. I havent even PLAYED it yet! LOL.. and also continue with Sims2 . So much to learn and I have always wanted to learn ( for Sim 2 ) how to create clothing and my own object meshing. I tried once with Clothing in 2009 and it was a disaster! LOL. Once I learn OBJECT 3D meshing perhaps it will open the door to clothing and or HAIR for Sims 2.
I know! All this and when do i have time to work... sleep or spend time with hubby and kids! LOL.
Anyways THANKS for all your continued support and feedback! I love getting comments and Guest Book entires and I dont mind PMs either!
Love to you all!

My Funny Secret... still after all these yrs and 2.2 million downloads later!
LOL... back in 2009 .. in a Blog post I revealed a "little secret" that I didn't use PhotoShop or GIMP or anything else for recoloring. I used standard MS Paint!!
Over 1600 creations and 2.2 million downloads ...I am STILL USING MS PAINT! I don't use anything else.. with the exception that i use Adobe Photshop Elements ( trial version) at present ONLY to get the 4:3 ratio for screenshots. I dont know how to use it for anything else!
I know I know.. my bad. I really need to move on to the "next level" of professional looking recolors and screenshots.. and learn how to use at least Gimp . I have it downloaded.. just have not gotten around to reading tutorials on all I can do with it.
Yeah I am a bit set in my ways.. but i know I need to move onward and upward in my creating skills.
With our Cuban getaway only 22 days away .. I figure I wont head into any new territories of learning until AFTER the trip. I have enough to do.. and I am quite able to create with MS Paint for now.
Yrs back a well meaning Lady told me on the Forums.. when I was considering getting into recoloring..that I would have to get Photoshop or some other editing software.. because I would NEVER be able to recolor with MS Paint.
Hmmm... not true. However LOL.. I am limited in some things with the Paint program.. so the inevitable must happen .. i must learn new things. grrrr...
Anyways, there you have it! MS PAINT.
Aha! My FIRST SIMS 3 House!
Oh my! I created my first ever Sims 3 house and I have Uploaded. Lets see if it gets accepted. Buy that was tough! What a HUGE difference from Sims2 . It is so hard to zoom in and out etc.. I am a newbie at Sims3 and still learning the ropes! It took me like 2 hrs to build this house LOL. All Base Game and Maxi /EA material.
Let me know what you think. I loved the back ground of the LOT .. on a cliff! These Gridlines.. I dont know how to turn them off. I googled help on this and apparantly there are two different types.. main gridlines and smaller that you can toggle on or off in build mode. I turned them OFF in build mode. Again I hope the lot gets approved. If not here it is for the Sims World to see. I am so very proud of myself!!
Sims 2 Play Dandy Table and Chair Mesh weblink error fixed
So finally all the Sims 2 Play Dandy table MESh links to the original website are fixed thanks to patient TSR staff :)
As well I updated Sims 3 Plays website on older recolors from 2009.. such as a Dandy recolor and a KELLY bedroom set! The website has changed to SIMS 2 PLAY ARCHIVE.
So sorry for any inconvenience!
ONE DIRECTION Stuff coming SOON! Weee !
As a mom of a 14 yr old ONE DIRECTION Fanatic.. i felt it appropriate pending the release of their New Album " TAKE ME HOME" this upcoming week to make some sets of perhaps posters, beddings , wall paper etc for all those teen Sim 1D fans! :) If anyone has creative suggestions regarding this.. please comment! :)
